Galatasaray are struggling a uncommon previous humiliation. The substitute Denso Kasius has smashed in a belter from 25 yards to place Alkmaar 6-1 forward on combination.

Bodo/Glimt have contemporary hope because of a nerveless penalty from Kasper Hogh.

Porto are right down to 10 males in peculiar circumstances. Stephen Eustaquio was despatched off after a VAR examine for throwing a half punch at Leandro Paredes, who tried to dam him off the ball. It was extra of a get-off gesture from Eustaquio, however he did it with a closed fist and that’s why he was in bother. His fist brushed Paredes under the neck; Paredes went down holding his face and was booked for simulation, which suggests he’ll miss the subsequent sport if Roma get by way of. That appears more and more possible.

Welcome to heaven. AZ Alkmaar are cruising into the final 16 of the Europa League, having carried out a helluva quantity on one of many match favourties. After an excellent run from Ernest Poku, Gabriel Sara’s tried clearance hit Seiya Maikuma and ricocheted into the online.

Roma’s magic man has carried out it once more! Paulo Dybala discovered a fraction of area on the correct aspect of the realm, not more than that, and reversed an early shot that beat Diogo Costa on the close to publish! That’s one other excellent end – not simply the strike however the aspect of shock. Diogo Costa began to place his weight on his proper foot, anticipating a shot in direction of the far nook, and that meant he couldn’t change course shortly sufficient.

Paulo Dybala scores a wonderful equaliser for Roma! When he went off injured within the first leg it seemed like he may out for whereas; Porto will want that was the case.

Dybala picked the ball up 25 yards from purpose, performed a easy one-two with
Eldor Shomurodov and scurried into the realm. He held off a problem, taking light touches all of the whereas to make sure the ball didn’t get away from him, after which flicked a nonchalant end over Diogo Costa together with his left foot. I can hear Barry Davies within the thoughts’s ear: “Pretty purpose! Pretty purpose!”

FCSB have doubled their combination lead in Bucharest. It was a pleasant workforce purpose, completed effectively by the brand new signing Juri Cisotti.

Samu Aghehowa has put Porto forward with a surprising purpose! It stemmed initially from a wretched move by the Roma keeper Mile Svilar that was intercepted on the sting of the realm. He made partial amends with a great save, then a shot was blocked and Roma appeared to have gotten away with it. However then Samu flicked the ball up and hooked an overhead kick excessive into the online. That’s a belting purpose.

The primary purpose of the night has been scored in Norway. Bodo/Glimt have been utterly on high nevertheless it’s Twente who’ve taken the lead by way of an unlucky own-goal. A nook from the correct bounced up awkwardly, hit the unsighted Fredrik Sjovold on the pinnacle and flew into the online.

Howdy and welcome to a different tremendous busy European clockwatch. A few of the video games are already underneath approach, so let’s crack on with the goalflashes.

We’ll be focussing on the Europa League, although we’ve additionally reserved half an eye fixed for Shamrock Rovers versus Molde within the Convention League.
